I just did, -110 & -110


Typically in the USA there is a 20 cents line (if thats what you want to call it) in NFL, NCAAFB, NBA NCAA BASKETS when betting into a pointspread. Prior to Pinnacle, no one ever dealt -108 or -107 except promos. You always laid 11 to win 10 except moneyline wagers in baseball where one may lay -130 and take 120. Most books went to 15 cents at -150 (+135) and 20 cents at -180 (+160) in baseball moneylines. BOOKMAKER, BETCRIS, SPORTS411.AG, Et Al is one of the best books on the planet. A REAL BOOKMAKER!

Because he likes to take shots and Bookmaker doesn’t take kindly to shot takers.....and because Bookmaker makes you wager before the game starts....

2 places you can't go wrong with are Bookmaker & Pinnacle.....very solid books, but just for american players since Pinnacle doesn't take action from america anymore, Bookmaker is the way to go.

How does this points stuff work?

Looked at my account and I accumulated a couple hundred points in a few days.

Apparently have to call in to determine what level one is at.


Their live betting is down right now. Still a little surprised their live betting is so limited and one-dimensional. I thought as one of the bigger books they'd have some kick-ass live options.

Kind of like the opposite of Heritage right now, which wants to force you to only bet live action.

Excluding credit card or bitcoin.

What is the best option for making deposits?

Cash is pretty solid. And incredibly easy. They have 3 options for it.

For smoothness of site I put them definitely ahead of 5dimes and Heritage. Only drawback for me is live options are extremely vanilla and the number of overall betting options is not as extensive. But love the feel. Very nice, very smooth.

And the site doesn't do that one cent off bullshit you'll find at a lot of others sites. For some reason BM always goes down to the exact cent. Not a big deal, but good to see the numbers always add up.

if they don't take away your betpoints,, then you are a square or
the sharpest of sharps to be able to disguise your play and fool them.
I think your betpoints will always be safe, runmaker.

Damn Railbird...please tell us what you really think of this place.

Lost my local after 20 years (illness) and looking for another option than driving 400 miles
to and from Tunica every weekend which I ain't going to do.

Hell, this BM has gotten strong reviews until your dislike. All I want is them to pay me
if I win...they certainly will be paid if I lose.

That is the response of a Hillary voter, especially since you already know the answer.

Sometimes you can be a pain in the ass....All I am trying to tell you is to call customer service and ask them anything you want...they should be able to answer any question you have...and then come back here and relay any comments and answers you have...go right to the horses mouth and get answers....you can see others and their comments but the best thing is to go right to the source....I have not worked there for ten years but I still have connections there and I can tell you that there are reliable people there...DO NOT listen to Railbird, he is an idiot...

Very solid book. Your money is very safe there. They aren't going anywhere.

Someone posted that they are running 20 cent baseball lines thers!? Is that true? I don't think so.

Usually 20 cent lines and 10 cent lines during the post season....that’s the way it used to be.....
